TitleNCTA Seminar on Teaching about Asia
Body
From http://www.indiana.edu/~easc/taa_seminar

The East Asian Studies Center (EASC) at Indiana University will hold a National Consortium for Teaching about Asia (NCTA) Teaching about Asia summer residential seminar in Bloomington, IN from July 21-26, 2008. In addition to course materials, EASC will provide housing and parking, as well as all meals during the seminar at no cost.

The NCTA seminar is a no-cost professional development program for teachers of grades 6-12 in world history, world cultures, and world geography. They also consider educators in the arts, literature, and East Asian languages on a case-by-case basis. This one week/30-hour seminar provides a broad overview of the history and cultures of China, Japan, and Korea and gives teachers the opportunity to discuss classroom applications and resources. Those who successfully complete the seminar will receive a $500 personal stipend and a $300 resource-buying grant for their school. They will also be eligible to apply for a very low-cost summer NCTA study tour to East Asia. Graduate credit from Indiana University is available for purchase for those who are interested.
